So I guess that means her performance was uh, TOXIC....Sorry, I couldn't help myself....I'm sure K-Fed is planning his next celebrity stunt as we speak....Now let's watch the idiots try to outdo each other.

I personally think she deserves some thumbs up for having tried. It is hard stand up once you fall... perhaps she has learnt something during this time... (and i am not talking about wearing underwear).

Juan Carlos (who appreciates when a fallen tries to stand up... have been there and done that.... not meaning the dancing thing).

I saw her live at Splash a few years ago when she was doing a night of drive-by haunts of the local gay establishments here in NYC and she rocked the house.

Poor girl has really fallen.

Looks like she is trying to jazzercise while drunk.

It was pretty f-ing funny to watch, though...

Umm..Juan Carlos...she was falling over herself, couldn't even lip sync for crying out loud...I live in in North Carolina and the bumkik drag queens have better tempo and than she did!

And all she learned is that people will applaud her no matter how fat and untalented she is...

I was just now reading an article in todays paper about her performance last night. After watching the clip, I have to agree with the article in the paper today.

"Somewhere, Kevin Federline is laughing. An out of shape, out of touch Britney Spears delivered what was destined to be the most talked about performance of the MTV Video Music Awards---But all for the wrong reasons."

"Kicking off with "Gimme More", spears looked bleary, and unprepared, much like her recent tabloid expoits on the street s of Los Angeles."

"She walked throught the dance moves, with little enthusiasm. She appeared to have forgotten the art of lip- Synching. And, perhaps most unforgivable, given her once taut frame, she looked embarrassingly out of shape."

"Even the celebrity - studded audience seemed bewildered. 50 cent, looked at Spears with a confused look ; And Diddy, her new best friend, was expressionless !"

"Some comeback. Breathlessly hyped by MTV as the evenings most anticipated performance, it became the most shockinly bad of the night. Jive records might want to push back that Nov. 13th , release date"

she isnt fat but she did look pudgy - the hair was wrong and the outfit didnt do her any favors either. Its like she was set up.

Her performance sucked because she didnt care...and you know what? I never cared for her either. She may be on her way to becoming a "has been", but in my book she falls into the category of "those who never were".

I hope she has a good financial advisor...her mega money making days are kaput.

Maybe this is unpopular - but how dare we judge someone for their bad decisions on this board?

She is a celeb so she puts herself out there for ridicule but think about it. The girl has been dragged around by those that "love" her since she was a child. Her parents entered her in ever fucking contest on Earth. They sexualized a child and the world ate it up.

Now, she has the mental capacity of a child and she is expected to take care of children. She is a meal ticket plain and simple and now the people that "love" her abandoned her because she is a mess. She is a mess because it is hard to grow up in front of the world.

The performance sucked because I don't think she even wants to do this shit anymore. Her songs have always been manufactured as was her whole existence. I mean, does she even exist? Is there a person in that head.

I stand by the fact that I believe from what I have seen that the girl is bipolar and off her meds. If anyone knows anything about the disease they know the mania and the depression.

ray - I echo your sentiment...poor girl.

Sorry if I offend anyone with this but I just wish I could give her a hug. Not as Britney Spears the celeb but as Britney Spears the sad sad woman.

You didn't offend me. And I think Thunter was saying the same thing earlier. You both make valid and honest points.

But...The fact of the matter though is we are laughing at BRITNEY SPEARS in a LAS VEGAS performance...and if you can't have fun at her expense in that situation then all we have left are the gays, Jews and women politicians...and I hear they are starting to get organized.

But c'mon...Saturday Night Live was created for this!

I would expect nothing less from anyone here, if it were me up there! No offense taken...and you are right...she has fallen and fallen hard...

If Miss South Carolina could take the heat then the Britster should be able to step up to the plate.

Seriously, though, as a performer she is going to be held to a high scrutiny and her appearance and performance are going to be judged. She honestly looked like she didnt give a fig during her performance.

I guess you guys caught me in a poignant moment. I am the first to point and laugh at a trainwreck, but I pondered on this today. I wish I had those braincells back.

Dachshund - I am not trying to start any kinda flamewar but you and I have no idea what is going on in Brit Brit's little cracked head. Money does not make people happy, in fact, I think it makes shit worse.

I feel for everyone who is in pain and doesn't have people to help them. I feel she is used by her "loved" ones and that must be a difficult feeling.

Maybe she is Poz, maybe she has cancer, maybe she i a fucking crackhead, - who knows, but does her being famous negate the fact that she is SCREAMING for help?
